Episode 193: When Ordinary People Say Yes: The story of Seeking Truth Bible Study

56 minutes

What happens when you open the Bible and simply say “yes” to God? In this conversation with Sharon Doran, teaching director of Seeking Truth, you’ll hear how Scripture has the power to heal wounds, renew marriages, transform families, and ignite whole communities. Sharon shares how she went from feeling unqualified to teaching hundreds—because the Holy Spirit showed up when she stepped out in faith.

Sharon’s story is a reminder that Scripture isn’t just ink on a page—it’s alive. It heals, it unites, and it sends us on mission. If you’ve ever wondered how ordinary people can be used in extraordinary ways, her story will inspire you to guard time with Scripture and trust God to do more than you imagined.
